IT'S A SCAM!!!!
I spend time reporting scams to the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police)
department who try and stop these things - This is a regular ploy - Do NOT
touch it with a barge pole. AND DO NOT REPLY TO ANY CORRESPONDENCE. DO
NOT TRY PLAYING GAMES WITH THEM. Believe it or believe it not but people
have got murdered who have got involved in these schemes !!!!! THAT
INFORMATION COMES STRAIGHT FROM THE RCMP. They are an extension of the
"Nigerian Letter" gang ploys.
